Uncertainties in the Inference of Internal Structure: The Case of TRAPPIST-1 f
We use the TRAPPIST-1 system as a model observation of Earth-like planets. The densities of these planets being 1%–10% less than the Earth suggest that the outer planets may host significant hydrospheres. We explore the uncertainty in water mass fraction (wmf) from observed mass and radius. We inves...
